It only took four-plus years of incendiary tweets, racist statements and violent threats, but on January 8, Twitter finally decided to permanently ban the US president's account with just days left of his term – and with it, his primary platform for speaking to his devotees.
In addition, Google, Amazon and Apple have cracked down on Parler, a possible plan B social media platform for the president and his followers. Reddit, Discord, Shopify, TikTok and Snapchat have also imposed restrictions.
Jennifer Palmieri, a political adviser for the Obama administration, remarked dryly on Twitter: “It has not escaped my attention that the day social media companies decided there actually IS more they could do to police Trump’s destructive behavior was the same day they learned Democrats would chair all the congressional committees that oversee them.”

The EU shived the link tax and meme ban down the throats of its citizens a while ago.
It was a preview of coming attractions.
Let’s face it, this entire article is non-stop fantasy and delusion masquerading as “news”.
Ya’s cain’t stop postcards, letters, phone calls (example, how well the do not call lists work), or even numbers broadcasts on shortwave.
It looks like any illicit naked photos of Hunter Biden or other bad press has been totally scrubbed from the Internet. There were some pictures posted on free republic a few days ago showing Biden naked with underage children. You cannot find these pictures now anywhere. I assume they’re still on free republic. Can anyone post those photos again. Try googling Hunter Hunter. Nothing

New course? They bet against Trump. They’ll be done -so fast it’ll curl their hair.
They learned Democrats would chair all the congressional committees that oversee them.
Now class this lessen is about how to suck up and getting owned in one act without knowing it.
